Auchmithe- "Its the Blackpool of scotland".
Shortly after returning to uni, we took a day trip to Auchmithe to do some drawings.
Its a borderline village which has a handful of houses, a single worn down public toilet and a cafe which is closed on tuesday, being the day our trip fell on.
However, if drawing or photography is what you're in need of, its a great place to go. I must have spent about 2 hours (minimum) walking about the beach finding things to photograph and came away at the end of the day with hundreds of photos. The idea was to gather together drawings to lead us into our next uni project, i managed a few drawings despite the hurricane winds but was mainly focusing on photography and considering images which could be used for our next project.
I started to consider images which i could translate into our studio project.
Our most recent brief was to design a fabric which could be used in a golf course currently being built in Carnoustie.
Within this brief i wanted to look at sea landscapes, and ways in which i could abstract them in order to create an intresting fabric.
To achieve this i began to look at rock formations and the linear stuctions in landscapes.
